ReactJS server side rendering and componentDidMount method

问题

I am new to React, so please don't judge strictly. I am rendering my React app on server and want execute code on frontend side. Application renders properly with styles and without warnings or errors, though with empty state since I am using API which should execute on front side and it is OK for now.

as I understand server renders component and since server rendered and mounted component on server and it is not calling componentDidMount() method which should do my API calls and other staff

this is my component

import React from 'react';
import {render} from 'react-dom';
import SpComparison from './spComparison.jsx';
import Comparison from './comparison.jsx';
import AnalystRatings from './analystRatings.jsx';


export default class Insights extends React.Component {
constructor(props){
    super(props);
    this.state = {
       charts: []
    }

    let _this = this;
}

componentDidMount() {
    console.log("I want to do log on front end side, but can't")
}

render () {
    let charts = this.state.charts.map(function(i){
        if (i.type == 'comparison'){
            return <Comparison key={ i.id } config={ i.config } />
        }
        else if (i.type == 'sp-comparison'){
            return <SpComparison key={ i.id } config={ i.config } />
        }
        if (i.type == 'analyst-ratings'){
            return <AnalystRatings key={ i.id } config={ i.config } />
        }
    });

    return (
        <div id="insights" className="container">
            <div className="row">
                <div className="col-md-3 hidden-md-down" style={{
                    marginTop: 10
                }}>
                    <ul className='finstead-tabs'>
                        <li className="finstead-tabs-header">
                            Categories
                        </li>
                        <li>
                            <a href='' className="finstead-active-tab">Performance</a>
                        </li>
                        <li>
                            <a href=''>Financial</a>
                        </li>
                        <li>
                            <a href=''>Valuation</a>
                        </li>
                        <li>
                            <a href=''>Shares</a>
                        </li>
                        <li>
                            <a href=''>Outlook</a>
                        </li>
                    </ul>
                </div>
                <div className="col-xs-12 col-md-9">
                    { charts }
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
    )
 }
}

I guess I am doing it not right way, so please help me.

NOTE

In highest level component I haven't called ReactDOM.render may it cause this behaviour?

tutorial that I used for example

回答1:

I have found solution after reading tutorial more carefully.

Problem was my inattention and everything is described in tutorial above.

basically in bundled file you should call ReactDOM.render to execute application again, but it won't affect on performance since React uses VirtualDOM and diffing with already existing DOM.

so without ReactDOM.render js won't be executed.

so I created separate file app-script.js which is my entry point for bundle and it calls my highest component with ReactDOM.render.
